{UAH} ASSIGNMENT: The Acholi lesson in jealousy and envy

STORY:

A widowed woman was left to care for her child and her sister-wife aka, co-wife's child when a devastating drought and famine killed her husband and sister-wife.

As the hunger continued to eat people's lives she made the choice on what her own child and sis-wife's child would eat.

A lone cow still survived the ferocious drought and famine.

She decided that her own son would eat the cow's dung while her sister-wife's child would eat her own feaces.

In no time, the cow fell ill and died and shortly after her child who fed on the cow's dung also died.

The one who survived the famine was her sister-wife's child whom she fed her own feaces.

ASSIGNMENT: Now, you do the arithmetic.
